Endiandra sideroxylon, commonly known as buff walnut or steelbutt, is a species of plant in the family Lauraceae native to northeast Queensland, Australia. It is a rainforest tree, first described in 1989. It has a conservation status of least concern.
This species is restricted to the Atherton Tableland and nearby areas, from the vicinity of Lake Tinaroo in the north to Tully Gorge National Park in the south, at altitudes from 140 m (460 ft) to 1,000 m (3,300 ft). It grows in rainforest on a variety of soils, but appears to grow best on basalt soils.
The tree is harvested for timber, which is sold under the trade name 'buff walnut'.
